Circle of Friends - Vagrants

Too afraid to stay, too much of a coward to leave

These apparitions in my mind won’t let go of me

I can’t see the forest through the trees

Everything feels like its burning inside of me

My convictions have always haunted me

Like the ghost of an empty house

I can’t shake this emptiness

The undead stay trapped behind my mouth

This is the last time that I’ll say to you

«Your words only weight so much»

But I’ll keep it fast, cause the irony has lost its touch

But I can’t shake this feeling, I’m too far gone

I’m wrong and going nowhere

Who am I to hate my past?

Hollow hearts weren’t meant to last

Because now, I see that everything’s been wrong

Just because of me

Have these thoughts, these unclear demons

Torn inside me from the start

I only seem to like myself

When I hold a heavy heart

Self-righteous, self-loathing

You’re a self-depreciating cynic

There’s something wrong

I just can’t put my finger on it

I know you know, that I don’t know

But I know that you can feel it

There’s something haunting in your eyes

You’re something I hope to God

That I wish that I could forget

I want to say I’m sorry

I don’t feel the same way that you do

I’m haunted more by my own sins

Than I could ever be by the ghost of you

This is the last time that I’ll say to you

«Your words only weight so much»

But I’ll keep it fast, cause the irony has lost its touch

But I can’t shake this feeling, I’m too far gone

I’m wrong and going nowhere

Who am I to hate my past?

Hollow hearts weren’t meant to last
